Good Fit
- • Provides shelter, victim services, or women-focused programming.

Geography
Giving is multi-state with grants recorded in roughly 28 states, indicating national reach, although the latest year shows a strong dollar concentration in Indiana (about 59%).
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 63 distinct recipients and repeated multi-year support to a broad set of charities and house corporations; although some Alpha Chi Omega entities receive large shares, many independent nonprofit shelters and service providers are funded.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of new entrants exists (12 new recipients in the latest year and consistent new-recipient counts in prior years), but no formal application guidelines were found; entry appears possible via outreach but not through a publicized competitive process.
